Wiring for the Switching Regulator
The following figure gives the recommendation of the wiring.
The switching regulator output (LX) delivers the 1.5 V voltage, that is smoothed with the external devices. This voltage is connected to pin V
DD1.5V.
The following external devices are necessary for the switching regulator:
Figure B-1 shows the wiring for the external regulator circuit if the regulator is used to generate the 1.5 V for the PHYs.
Notes:
• All components should be placed as close as possible to the TPS-1.
• Important: The characteristic of C1 is mandatory. A lower ESR will cause problems with the regulator oscillation.

To avoid the recommended tantalum capacitor it is possible to compose the needed characteristics with a series connection of a resistor and a ceramic
capacitor. If you use ceramic capacitors only C1 has to be replaced by a ceramic capacitor in connection with a series resistor. C2 did not need a series
resistor.
